Will databaseConnector work without Java when using SQLite OMOP instance?

I work in a very restricted environment with no administrator rights and only limited resources available. Java is not installed in this environment, and the only type of DBMS I am able to interact with is SQLite via the RSQLite R-package.

The DatabaseConnector library, which seems essential for running most OHDSI tools, lists Java as a requirement. However, when the DBMS used is SQLite it does not use a JDBC driver, but rather the RSQLite package (from the documentation). So I am wondering whether the DatabaseConnector library will actually work without Java, as long as I will only use it against SQLite databases?
